So it's down to the final 26 in the King of the Hill pool I'm in. The pot is $6000. I've already used Baltimore, Pittsburgh, New England, Jacksonville, Indianapolis, Minnesota, LA Rams, Cleveland (yes, Cleveland over the Jets) and Chicago. Here are the 4 games I'm looking at for this week....
Cardinals at Chiefs - I think this is the surest bet but I hate to use the Chiefs on a shit team
Saints at Bengals - I don't want to root against my hometown team, plus Cincy usually plays well at home and they're coming off a bye.
Chargers at Raiders - Chargers are on a 5 game winning streak but have been lucky in a couple road games.
Dolphins at Packers -leaning toward this game, Packers are in a must win situation and the Dolphins have Osweiler at QB.
No what I'm touching the Jets/Bills! Falcons at Cleveland and Dallas at Philly also look good. Any thoughts?

I'd burn the chargers this week.

It will be COLD in Green Bay on Sunday... Dolphins will all be huddled by the heaters. I like that one.
That said, in my experience in such pots (and, I've won several)... especially near the end is: Don't over-think it. Sometimes, it's best to take the "sure thing".... KC is about as "Sure" as you can get.
Sounds EXCITING! I didn't get in one these pots this year. Not sure why. They're usually a lot of fun. MamaBevo has won a couple too.

I would not use the chargers as that will be your best play by far next week. Week 14 it gets a bit rough. I would not touch the Bengals at Home. KC is a sure thing but the Packers at Home seems like a safe bet.
Week 11 Denver at LA Chargers Week 12 Giants at Philly Week 13 SF at Seattle or Cleveland at Houston or Arizona at Packers or KC at Oakland Week 14 Giants at Wash

Thanks for the advice - ity's nice to have solid options and the good news is, I think I can still keep the best options in play and still move on.

Well I went with Green Bay and live to play another week. We lost 9 entries thanks to losses by Philly, Atlanta and the NY Jets. So I have a 1 in 18 chance at this point - It's early but I think the Chargers are the smart call this week - it certainly won't be the Bengals!!!

I'm convince, Chucky in NOT TRYING to win anymore. In fact, they are actively TRYING to lose.
